chali ja chali ja chali ja, chhod ke duniya
gamo ki duniya, aaho ki duniya
chali ja chali ja chali ja
chali ja chali ja chali ja, chhod ke duniya
gamo ki duniya, aaho ki duniya
chali ja chali ja chali ja

yaha koyi nahi apna, naa ghar apna naa dar apna
yaha koyi nahi apna, naa ghar apna naa dar apna
dilasa bhi bahana hai, satane kaa rulane kaa
chali ja chali ja chali ja, chhod ke duniya
gamo ki duniya, aaho ki duniya
chali ja chali ja chali ja

sitam jhele uthaye gam, rahe aankhe sada puranam
sitam jhele uthaye gam, rahe aankhe sada puranam
gila kisse kare ja kar, mukaddar kaa jamane kaa
chali ja chali ja chali ja, chhod ke duniya
gamo ki duniya, aaho ki duniya
chali ja chali ja chali ja

jiye to ghut ke mar jaye, mare to ham kidhar jaye
jiye to ghut ke mar jaye, mare to ham kidhar jaye
mila achchha sila hamko, teri duniya me aane kaa
chali ja chali ja chali ja, chhod ke duniya
gamon ki duniya, aahon ki duniya
chali ja chali ja chali ja

Go, depart, depart, away, leave this world behind,
A world of sorrows, a world of sighs, unkind.
Go, depart, depart, away.
Go, depart, depart, away, leave this world behind,
A world of sorrows, a world of sighs, unkind.
Go, depart, depart, away.

Here, none are your own, no home, no door to claim,
Here, none are your own, no home, no door to claim.
Consolation, a pretense, to torment, to bring pain,
Go, depart, depart, away, leave this world behind,
A world of sorrows, a world of sighs, unkind.
Go, depart, depart, away.

We bore the wounds, embraced the grief, eyes ever wet,
We bore the wounds, embraced the grief, eyes ever wet.
To whom can we complain, of fate, of time's regret?
Go, depart, depart, away, leave this world behind,
A world of sorrows, a world of sighs, unkind.
Go, depart, depart, away.

To live, to suffocate, to die, where shall we roam?
To live, to suffocate, to die, where shall we roam?
This bitter reward, for entering your home.
Go, depart, depart, away, leave this world behind,
A world of sorrows, a world of sighs, unkind.
Go, depart, depart, away.
